UNITED STATES

Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 101 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference. Trump has held at least six news conferences where he took questions from the media since the beginning of August. Harris has done brief, informal press gaggles this week with the media while on the campaign trail, including on Monday when she criticized the tone and rhetoric at Trump’s rally in New York City over the weekend. She gave a speech on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., outlining her path forward for the United States and how she differs from what she calls Trump’s radical, dark vision.Harris also ended her streak of not appearing on Fox News earlier this month, sitting for an interview in Pennsylvania with chief political anchor Bret Baier. She also did a CNN town hall and interviews last week with NBC News, Telemundo and CBS, as well as several podcasts and local news stations this week.KAMALA HARRIS ASSERTS HER PRESIDENCY ‘WILL NOT BE A CONTINUATION’ OF BIDEN’SHarris has stepped up her interviews in recent weeks, including doing radio hits, friendly appearances with “The View,” Stephen Colbert and Howard Stern and other media appearances.But as for when she’ll actually do a formal press conference as a candidate, that day appears like it won’t come, at least while she’s still a candidate.Conservative Radio Libre host Jorge Bonilla feels Harris should do a press conference but said it’s almost “irrelevant” because she continues to get a pass. HARRIS DODGES QUESTION ON LOWERING PRICES BY DESCRIBING ‘MIDDLE-CLASS’ ROOTS: NEIGHBORS ‘PROUD OF THEIR LAWN’”She is highly unlikely to do a press conference because the media have enabled and encouraged her ‘plexiglass basement’ strategy, wherein she preserves the illusion of being out there while remaining wholly inaccessible to the press and therefore unaccountable,” Bonilla told Fox News Digital.Trump has skipped several potential interviews in recent weeks, but he showed up at the annual Al Smith dinner that has historically featured the presidential candidates doing lighthearted roasts. Harris decided not to attend, sending a video message instead.CBS NEWS BREAKS ITS SILENCE OVER EDITING ALLEGATIONS IN ‘60 MINUTES’ INTERVIEW WITH HARRISHarris also did an interview this month on “60 Minutes” that has generated controversy due to the show’s editing choices with an answer she gave to a question about Israel. In a preview of the interview on Oct. 6, CBS aired one portion of her answer but appeared to air a completely different part of it during the actual special on Oct. 7.Fox News Digital’s Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report.

So, we’re one week out from Election Day, and one way or another, somebody is going to win this thing. It’s not going to end in a tie like soccer or the hottest abs in the Cancun contest I should have won last year. Right now, the polls are razor-thin, at least according to the lying, spineless f—weeds in the media. Because if you compared the polls to common sense, you’d think we’re in two different worlds. There’s a celebratory vibe on one side and sheer bats— craziness on the other. How can it be tied if one side is acting so desperate? I mean, we’re having fun, and they’re having seizures calling you Hitler. The Wall Street Journal says “America is having a panic attack over the election.” Sure. But is it really a both sides sort of thing? It seems every four years we only get more polarized. Hell, I remember the good old days when Randi Weingarten and I used to play men’s doubles. Not anymore. Too much hate. So what are we going to do once it’s over? How does a person come back from calling you a Nazi? It’s going to make it really awkward at your nephew’s bar mitzvah. So let’s say you support Trump and he wins. How are you going to react? You’ll probably gloat a little. I’ll probably send the cast of The View a truckload of hogs to comfort eat. Maybe you’ll do an end zone dance. But, you know, there will be some seriously ticked off people if Trump wins. Hell, they’re ticked off already. And if we consider recent history, it’s entirely possible they’ll riot if Trump wins. Which is why I have already boarded up my grandparents. You remember D.C. in 2017 when Trump was inaugurated and the next four years were just one long, nervous breakdown on the left? Just ask the human tampon, Tim Walz. For him, burning down his city was considered free speech. His wife loves the smell, which doesn’t say much for his body spray. And we’re already seeing how libs behave when they think Trump might win.GUTFELD! SHOWS VIDEO OF A WOMAN SCREAMING AT A BABYYou know, screaming at a literal baby is not the sort of thing you do when you’re confident of victory. Well, unless you’re going to win a paternity test. But we see the same hysteria daily on TV. Right, Whoopi?WHOOPI GOLDBERG: What we heard at that rally should be enough to shake folks awake because he’s talking about you. He’s talking about you and us. He’s not going to, you know, say, oh, you’re with the white guy. I’m going to keep you from being deport…No, he’s going to deport you and put the white guy with someone else, the man is out there.That’s not crazy at all. Seriously, did someone spike her sack of oats? It gets even worse when Morning Joe and The View collide like a 20-foot septic truck hitting a porta potty.MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski: Nobody gets a pass trashing America. Yeah. Puerto Rican Americans. Nobody gets a pass. Degrading people. Nobody gets a pass. Threatening his enemies with using the military gets against them. Nobody gets a pass on inciting an insurrection. Nobody gets a pass on saying he fancies Hitler and wants to have generals like his. Nobody gets a pass on insulting veterans and saying those who died for our country are suckers and losers; except for convicted felon Donald Trump.She needs a pass to the psych ward. These people, they’re not well. And if they can’t handle themselves now, imagine in a week’s time. It’s kind of sad that all we can do is hope the liberal freak out won’t be too bad this time. But what about the flip side of that coin? What if Kamala wins? Well, libs have less to worry about from us. January 6th was a one-off. Unlike the Democrats’ unending tumult during the Trump years. By the way, Kudlow’s tip to invest in plywood really paid off. PHILADELPHIA IS KAMALA HARRIS’ ALAMO, AND THE NERVOUS DEMOCRATS HERE KNOW ITOf course, there’s going to be a lot of grumbling, and I told you so’s. But the panic has less to do with pro-Trumpers and everything to do with the other side. If Trump loses, God forbid, you, the viewer may be sad, you might take it hard, but you always bounce back because your life is prioritized. Don’t forget that. Family, friends, God, work, politics for you is downstream from that. But for Democrats, politics is upstream from everything. Which is why Dems say they’d never even date someone from a different political party. Which is fine. Most Republican men don’t like women with penises. Most. For the Dems, politics has polluted every part of their lives. And if you believe that power underscores every behavior, which is the left’s ideology, then even friendships are transactional. It makes the real world smaller, for they miss out on other people who aren’t like them. They learn nothing except to hate. But you treat politics differently. You treat it like a box of junk that you take out of the closet every few years, and you keep it away from the kids, away from public gatherings, and you never, ever take it to work. ‘WORLD’S MOST ACCURATE ECONOMIST’ MAKES BOLD PREDICTION FOR 2024 ELECTIONJan 6 aside, Republicans know how to have a good time. Lively rallies, hilarious memes, relentlessly free speech. Hell, we even changed Joe’s name to Brandon. Which sucks. Well, it sucks for him. He was already having a hell of a time remembering his real name. Either way, we’re going to figure out no matter who wins. The president isn’t the king of America, and we’re not his or her or their/them subjects. Whether we lose or win, that message is loud and very clear. The media, the bureaucrats, the corrupt institutions, the elites, they got to realize that we got their number. And I’m hoping that number is bigger than theirs next week. But if it’s not, it’s OK because we’re just getting warmed up.

President Joe Biden threw what appeared to be a final shot across the bow of the Trump campaign just one week before the election, referring to Trump voters as “garbage.”It’s similar to right before the 2016 election when Hillary Clinton called Trump supporters “deplorables.” Just like eight years ago, Republicans have once again circled the wagons and are using the “garbage” verbiage to offset Vice President Kamala Harris’ bid to become president.BIDEN CALLS TRUMP SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE’ DURING HARRIS CAMPAIGN EVENT AS VP PROMISES UNITY AT ELLIPSE RALLYHere’s what happened. During a virtual Harris campaign call with Voto Latino, one of the largest Latino voter and civic outreach organizations in the U.S., Biden was asked about comedian Tony Hinchcliffe who, during a Trump rally on Sunday at Madison Square Garden, called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.””The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said of Trump on Tuesday. “[Trump’s] demonization of Latinos is unconscionable and it is un-American.”Republicans came out in droves to condemn the president’s remarks.”Add this to the “basket of deplorables” and “nazi” slurs against Americans. Why to so many Democrat leaders hate so many of our fellow Americans?” Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt said.”Garbage? What they say about us actually says more about them. What are we going to do about it? Get to WORK. Elect @realDonaldTrump. Elect Republicans. Call our friends and neighbors to VOTE!,” South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott said.TRUMP CALLS FOR SUPPORTERS TO ‘FORGIVE’ BIDEN IN SHOW OF UNITY AFTER PRESIDENT CALLS SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE'”As a Republican member of Congress, I’ve met with many of my constituents who are Democrats, Libertarians, NPA, and Independents. I would NEVER call them garbage. What are you doing @POTUS?” Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna tweeted.”Holy s***. The media spent all week crying about a joke from a comedian. Meanwhile, Tim Walz called Trump supporters Nazis. Kamala Harris refused to condemn it. And now Kamala’s biggest Democrat ally, Joe Biden, is calling all Trump supporters “garbage.” Absolutely disgusting!!!” Donald Trump Jr. wrote.”Tonight, the sitting Democratic President of the United States just called Trump supporters “garbage.” After two failed assassination attempts against Trump followed by the DNC state run media lecturing republicans to “tone down the rhetoric,”” Texas Rep. Wesley Hunt said.”A mother mourning her son who died of a fentanyl overdose is not garbage. A truck driver who can’t afford rising diesel prices is not garbage. A father who wants to afford groceries is not garbage. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden ought to be ashamed of themselves,” wrote vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance.LIVE UPDATES: BIDEN ATTEMPTS TO DENY CALLING TRUMP SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE’ DESPITE VIDEO”Obama called us clingers.Hillary called us deplorables.Kamala calls us fascists.And Biden just called us garbage.They don’t respect us & don’t want unity.But we do.We want to Make America Great Again.Our coalition is for ALL AMERICANS,” Florida Rep. Byron Donalds tweeted.The Harris campaign has yet to respond to Biden’s “garbage” remarks.Just before the presidential election in 2016, then Democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton referred to Trump supporters as a “basket of deplorables.” Though she was leading at the time, Trump eventually won the election.Early voting has begun around the nation, and Election Day is Nov. 5.

The White House attempted to walk back President Biden’s comments after the president unleashed a firestorm after calling Trump supporters “garbage.”During a virtual Vice President Kamla Harris campaign call with Voto Latino, Biden took a swipe at former President Trump’s rally in Madison Square Garden, which made headlines after insult comedian Tony Hinchiffe made jokes mocking different ethnic groups, with one joke referring to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.””The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said. “[Trump’s] demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it is un-American.”His remarks were quickly likened to Hillary Clinton’s labeling of half of Trump supporters as belonging in “a basket of deplorables” in 2016, a comment that was widely seen as undermining her campaign.TRUMP CALLS FOR SUPPORTS TO ‘FORGIVE’ BIDEN IN SHOW OF UNITY AFTER PRESIDENT CALLS SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE’White House spokesperson Andrew Bates told Fox News’ Jacqui Heinrich that President Biden “referred to the hateful rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally as ‘garbage.’””The president was referencing a joke by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe in which he likened Puerto Rico to an island of floating ‘garbage’ in the middle of the ocean,” he said.BIDEN CALLS TRUMP SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE’ DURING HARRIS CAMPAIGN EVENT AS VP PROMISES UNITY AT ELLIPSE RALLYThe White House earlier told NBC News that the president was referring to Hinchcliffe.WATCH:Later, Biden tried to further clarify his comments, saying that he was denouncing Hinchicliffe’s comments – not Trump supporters.”Earlier today I referred to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by Trump’s supporters at his Madison Square Garden rally as garbage—which is the only word I can think of to describe it,” Biden wrote in a post on X. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That’s all I meant to say. The comments at that rally don’t reflect who we are as a nation.”Speaking at a campaign event with Trump on Tuesday in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) picked up Biden’s remark as “breaking news” and told Trump supporters that Biden had marginalized a huge number of everyday Americans as “garbage.”Trump Campaign National Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement that Biden and Harris “despise the tens of millions” who support him.LIVE UPDATES: BIDEN ATTEMPTS TO DENY CALLING TRUMP SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE’ DESPITE VIDEO”There’s no way to spin it: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris don’t just hate President Trump, they despise the tens of millions of Americans who support him,” she wrote in a release. Backlash from the comments came from both sides of the aisle, with Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro condemning Biden’s remarks.”I’m giving you my fresh reaction to it,” he told Fox News Radio Political Analyst Josh Kraushaar on Tuesday. “I would never insult the good people of Pennsylvania or any Americans even if they chose to support a candidate that I didn’t support.”Get the latest updates from the 2024 campaign trail, exclusive interviews and more at our Fox News Digital election hub.Fox News Digital’s Joseph Wulfsohn contributed to this report.

Authorities in Washington, D.C. arrested two suspects for allegedly assaulting a police officer near Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign rally on Tuesday night.The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) told Fox News Digital that the arrests took place at around 7:00 p.m. in the area of 17th St. and Constitution Ave., Northwest, which is located a few blocks south of the White House.The suspects – one man and one woman – were arrested right outside the perimeter of the Ellipse, the park where Harris held her rally. The campaign event was ongoing at the time of the arrests, with Harris taking the stage at around 7:40 p.m.An MPD spokesperson said that an individual “attempted to cross a police line near the intersection of 15th Street and Constitution Avenue, Northwest.” 17th St. and 15th. St. along Constitution Ave. are the west and east corners of the Ellipse, respectively.BATTLEGROUND STATE OFFICIALS SAY FOREIGN ENEMIES USING MISINFORMATION TO ‘UNDERMINE’ DEMOCRATIC PROCESS”The individual ignored the officer’s commands,” the official explained. “As officers attempted to remove the woman, she began assaulting the officer.””A second individual approached the officers from behind, and assaulted them,” the statement added. “Both individuals were placed under arrest without further incident and charged with Assaulting a Police Officer. The arresting officers were not injured.”It is unclear if the arrestees were Harris supporters, protesters or were unaffiliated with the rally. At least one protester was detained at the event amid pro-Palestine demonstrations.Protesters were seen wearing keffiyehs and holding signs that read “Stop Arming Israel,” and “Stop U.S. Funding of Israeli Apartheid,” in the crowd. The MPD did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s inquiry about protesters being arrested.TRUMP MERCHANDISE OUTSELLS PRO-HARRIS MERCH BY STRIKING MARGIN, AS ELECTION DAY DRAWS NEAROn Tuesday, the Lincoln Project made an ill-timed post about the rally on X. The group criticized former President Trump for making the Ellipse “a crime scene.””Kamala Harris Closing Arguments Rally on the Ellipse tonight,” the post read. “4 years ago Trump made it a crime scene, but tonight Kamala is making it the launchpad for a new way forward.”Fox News Digital reached out to the Harris campaign for comment.D.C. authorities are actively investigating the incident. No additional details are known at this time.
